And Chanel rather brilliantly made that fourth shade into a glorious, metallic-finish, iced-violet waterproof eyeliner pencil ($29): Rose Platine.

There’s also a new summer duo: Khaki-Discret ($42, not to be confused with the previously released Khaki-Clair). Khaki-Discret includes a low-shimmer forest green (darker and not as blue-green as the color in Lilium) and a low-shimmer, very whitened, light yellow-green.
Khaki-Discret has more of a satin-finish compared to Khaki-Clair’s matte. Discret’s dark green is also more green and more blue (Clair’s green is very muted). And Clair’s lighter shade is white.
Chanel also has two… what should I call them, bronzing-blush? It’s Soleil de Tan, Moisturizing Bronzing Powder according to the website, but they look more like blush to me.

I swatched these powders three ways: first with a triangle sponge, all over all four shades equally — both light and heavy swatches. Then I swatched each of the four shades individually (because you may get a different “mix” as you run your brush over this product).

I was surprised that Bronze Corail was rather brown and mauvey on my arm. Bronze Rose is a natural pink. Both powders are $50 each.
And finally: the lips and nails. This collection offers two Rouge Coco lipsticks ($32): new, hot coral Sari Dore, and the repromoted Gardenia (this was Neiman Marcus’s exclusive shade for the original Rouge Coco launch).

There are three new Glossimers ($28.50): pink-with-silver-sparkles Pink Peony; sheer-coral-with-gold-sparkles Pensee; and clear-with-pink-and-gold-sparkles Aurore.
Of course the internet has been buzzing about Mimosa… since before they knew what the shade would be called. It’s considered the star of Chanel’s summer polishes — though I suspect the shade will look best on medium-to-darker skintones. It’s a bright, saturated yellow with a very subtle shimmer.

The other two polishes of the summer collection are “safer” — Morning Rose is a bright, warm pink with gold sparkle. Beige Petale is very, very, very sheer ballet beige-pink. All three polishes are $25 each.

Thanks Karla! Gorgeous pictures as always! I thought I was done ordering my Chanel summer items but you are making Bronze Rose hard to resist! A friend suggested that it would work nicely as eyeshadows as well so that should make us feel better spending our $$!

I just picked up bronze rose today =) i feel a little guilty spending the money but when I swatched it I just couldn’t resist..
Yes bronze corail is definitely more sparkly, even though the sparkles are very finely milled and not obvious, I prefer the less shimmery bronze rose. I also definitely agree that these aren’t true bronzers as well

and maybe karla can add a comment in the post about the brushes that came with the bronzers? I think it’s really soft and actually useable, which doesn’t happen often..

while I was there debating whether or not I should buy the bronzer.. they sold 2 mimosa nail polishes.. in like 10 minutes..

@ Hanna:
I did a bit of research and found out, that Rouge Allure Confindentielle should be quite similar to Gardenia. I guess I like to color even better! Maybe you want to give it a try – it is part of the permanent line.
